As one of the many volunteers who help out from time to time with WordPress on the WordPress Forum, I found myself repeatingly giving out link references so I started keeping notes and have put together a list of some of the link references most needed and asked for on the forum. Some of these are links to articles on the WordPress Codex, the main documentation site for the program, but others are answers posted on the forums, or other sites with the answers to common problems or situations that arise when using WordPress.

The WordPress Lessons on the WordPress Codex are really expanding, providing extensive step-by-step information to help anyone at any level.

We hope these help you and others find their way around WordPress.

New to WordPress: Beginners

Learning anything new can be overwhelming but there are a lot of resources that will take you through the process step-by-step.

Themes and Template Files

WordPress uses Themes to handle the website design and layout elements. Template Files and template tags are the files and tag tools that generate the results of each web page within your WordPress site. WordPress Pages are web pages within your site that feature information like “About Us”, “Contact”, “Schedule/Events”, and “Site Map”. The following resources will help you to learn how to use these to design your site.

To directly translate it and publish it would be a violation of copyright law.

Combined with the issue that some of the information on this page is now very much out of date, I recommend you use it as a starting point to find more current information and create your own list in your own language.

Translations without permission and republished are a violation of copyright. This list is very much out of date, so it isn’t a good reference nor reason to translate and reproduce. No thank you. But good luck with your homework.
